Re: Kawasaki/Suzuki merger
Hmm, I disagree with buy a Honda but your comments about GM... well said!!!
Who knows what will ultimately happen but, if one thinks about what each company does well, there are not a lot of similiarities in my view:
Suzuki
Great super sport bikes
Good dual purpose
Bad cruisers
Light on sport tourers - 'busa and Kat
Kaw
No great hardcore supersport bikes (yeah the zx's are great bikes but not in the realm of R1 GSXR1 etc)
Best 'general purpose' bike - KLR
Awesome sport tourers (ZX12, 11, 6... and, dare I say it 9R?)
Really cool cruisers
I think a mix could be a great thing for this company.
My apologies to the 99.7% of the members of this board whom I've just ticked off royally ;-)
